Half Dozen

Bob Englehart

Six more debates? Well, I’m all in favor of getting as much information as possible, but I think six debates might be too much. The candidates could probably cut that in half, especially since Tom Foley doesn’t have that much to say. Gov. Malloy is a wonk; he could certainly fill six hours of air time with all the ins and outs of state politics and policy, but most of us would fall asleep. In my cartoon, I was going to have Foley reply “Ditto” to Malloy’s comment, but that would align him with Rush Limbaugh. It would certainly be plausible that they’re friends, but I have no way of knowing.
